Taper Notes:
This was a really awsome show, full of energy and good music, (did not realize that these
guys had that many hits!) Plus seeing Ringo in a smaller Venue (Maybe 3,000 People)
really made it worth while.

The sound is decent and clear, (I had to lower the bass level a bit), and it does get muffelled
at times due to people moving in front of my mics, (assigned bench seating near the asile)
there is some crowd noise but still listenable. (My opinion much better than the Hollywood
FL show, I know my equipment sucks the big one, but until I can fork over $500 for new stuff
I have to work with what I have.

A note about this venue (as anyone who had been there can atest to.) This place is up in the mountains
above San Jose CA, and if I did not have MAPquest Directions, I would have sworn I was
lost, and the road to the place is a 1 lane winding road with a shear drop off to the
side, (I had to forgo my 420 as I did not want to try that drive even a little buzzed),
but it is deffinatly unique and beautiful place to see a show.
